- (2023-04-11) Mel H: I was so excited to find an extension specifically for Canadian weather! Turns out (after setting it up how I like it, including picking colours) it doesn't work. Huge bummer.
- (2020-01-08) Andrew Wong: Looks like it will not pull data anymore. Was kind of nice but is now deprecated.
- (2019-11-07) Taylor: STOPPED WORKING SINCE LAST MONTH...
- (2017-06-19) Simon Poirier: Works ok. Looks kinda bad though. It would be nice to have hourly forecast like the Canadian Weather Office provides.
- (2017-06-17) Stuart Spofford: Does not even show the capital city and largest city in the Yukon. But does show villages of 200 people. Waste of time
- (2017-02-06) Ron Piasta: accurate!
- (2014-03-11) Sébastien Laflamme: Would be nice to have the option to have more than one icon for more than one location.
- (2014-02-05) Alexandra_AGP: Not sure if it's me or the app, but I get a pop-up with empty boxes where the data should be? If it's me, how do I assign it a location?
- (2014-01-20) Jose Pineda: Cool !!!
- (2013-10-12) Dave Burgess: Very good, could make the "My Weather" window about 25% taller so that the entire page is displayed on a 1080 display...
- (2013-07-30) Barry Lam: Like it, nice and simple. However, maybe I'm missing something, is there a way to refresh the forecast without exiting Chrome and re-starting it?
- (2012-11-13) Cameron Bobinski: This is great. Just what I was looking for. Looking forward to updates in the future.
- (2012-11-12) Jeff Rennie: Pros: Good, clean, simple, and with all the information I need at a glance. Cons: Lack of pizazz. Where are the cool weather icons? Suggestion: Replace weather forecast with an icon and simple High/Low information with a detailed text description on mouse over.
